  3. When using text boxes, I can only tab across the screen to a certain extent (about 1/3 of the page width) before the cursor jumps to the next line. When trying to type around embedded images or handwritten notes, it’s extremely frustrating to use the tab key only so far and then have to press and hold the space bar for the cursor to go exactly where I want. It would be great if you added the ability to use the tab key across the entire page if we wanted to instead of having the cursor move to the next…

  4. Hi, I'm a user about Goodnotes since 2018.
    I suggest a few things to improve the Goodnotes.
    This writing was written including opinions of Goodnotes users around me.

    First, syncs of the Recording function and Text Box
    When I record and write at the same time, the writing syncs with the time of the recording. But it doesn't work in text box mode.
    So I recommend you to syncronize the time of the text coming out and the recorded audio.

    Second, Recording search function
    I would like to be able to hear the recording of that part when I touch…

  5. It would be of most use if a specific note on the sheet could be associated with an audio file saved in the notes. For example there could be a dot that prompts to the audio saved (the same way comments work), while also being able to change its name and description!

  6. I feel that the flashcards would be perfect if I was able to flip them and get tested on the "answer" side. when I'm studying a language, I want to be able to get tested on both languages. And if it's possible, it would be amazing to be able to mess with the setting and get a mix of either side of the flashcards in a study sesh. Also the ability to randomise flashcards would be great. In general, more customisation for how we want to be tested would be awesome. Other than that, I'm really happy with this flashcard…

  7. I see you now have Android Beta. However, you only wish to support 8-inch tablets or larger. What about people like me who use note phone for my daily studies? I write my notes on my phone and use other apps. I consider my Samsung Note 10+ a reliable note-taking app. It would be lovely if you consider also consider other note phone devices too as we also use a pen anyway and are used the size of our screens. Thanks!

  8. We need the ability to automate the creation of notes from a shortcut - like setting the template, title, folder etc of a new note created. Check out what Bear lets you do if you need an example of good shortcut support for automating on iOS/iPadOS/macOS. Thank you!

  9. I think that when lifting off the screen and starting again should be doable without the highlight overlapping & going darker.

  10. I love your product, I use it every day for studying and work.
    One of the things I appreciate in an app I use daily is the possibility to automate some actions thanks to my memory.

    For example: if I know that the "paste" command is the third from the left when I select an image, I will not read the command name anymore, I'll just automatically select it.

    What often happens with your updates is that you change the position of buttons or commands. Each time this happens I lose a tremendous amount of time re-learning the new settings…

  13. I know ms word has this function but it would be really great if we could type arrows like insert symbol in MS Word.
    I know writing is the best way to remember, but sometimes I don’t have time to write slowly then being able to type a symbol is really helpful….. especially when you have a lot of notes to make.

  14. GoodNotes users are looking to integrate AI features into the app, similar to other note-taking apps like Notion. AI-powered features such as transforming notes into practice tests, flashcards, table forms and summaries can help users study and revise more efficiently. Additionally, users would like to see AI-powered grammar and vocabulary suggestions to improve the quality of their notes.

  15. It would be useful to add reverse mod in Card's Smart Revise Regime so you can choose not only by the question but by the answer too. Same idea is now realized in Training Regime.

  16. I use my iPad in portrait mode, and it bothers me a bit that I have to slide to choose another color, I don't have the need to use some tools, for example, the laser or stickers, I would like to be able to remove and add tools from the toolbar depends on your needs so that there is a little more space in the toolbar and not have to scroll to find the color I want

  18. Currently if you have entered text and it is the wrong size or font, you have to erase it, reselect the correct font and/or size and re-enter it. Would like option to change all or part of what is written to something different.

  20. It would be great if the text recognition feature alo worked if you turn the page.
    When importing a scan for example that is horizontal but you want it to be vertical, you turn the page 90 degree, text won’t be recognised anymore.
    Would be great to have that fixed.
